"I was looking for somebody to join us as a junior designer...The great thing about Mark is that he's a talented designer, but he also knows what works — it's fine to draw something, but you've got to have that backbone underneath the outside shell, which he does," Steve Gresham explains at the time of interview.

"Unlike lots of young designers, I didn't grow up in the yachting world — I actually grew up in Luton [UK]...there's a lot to learn, and in a way I think I'll never stop learning...I want to produce fantastic products that people actually want to spend time on," says Mark Marshall on the day.
